I would like to share with you my first PSZ eagle made by Spink&Son. I know it is not rare, but please let me know about the crown damage on the right side. I have seen some eagles with it, I guess that the stamp had worn out. Does anyone know which part of eagles got this damage?

Welcome to the Forum.
Congratulations on this acquisition – it is so called “asymmetric spink” – version that has slight asymmetry that manifests itself in one of the wings being visibly “shifted” (description on previous posts).
Crown is OK – this “cut” is seen in many of this Eagles.

something that has always caused me thought. British Amed Forces Gaunt cap badges had either lug or slider fastening, save for officers bronze, ( open for enlightenment ) , yet their large Polish cap badge is found with a screw post , a variation of blade fastening or pin, hinge and hook. All the Lock & Co. rogatywka I have come across have been fitted with the wide blade badge. it begs the question who deemed the variations and reasons.

Fellows,
I am always very intrigued by unusual and not-main stream Eagles.
This is definitely one of them – the Navy – but without the dark blue paining of the shield.
I have seen this rare variant (without blue paint) - only couple of times.

I wonder – how it could have emerged?. Prediction - mistake?
Any thought?

I think – it is a very relevant find – expanding our knowledge.
The PAVA AUX patch – and the Eagle specifically – are very interesting.
I am not sure why the Eagle has no crown – as I would have expected that – assuming that the set is post-war, the patriotic feelings would have prevailed and the Eagle would have the crown.
I need to do more investigation on PAVA AUX symbols.

Perhaps some of You have some additional materials – suggestions / additions always appreciated.
